How to Make
Hot: Add 1 packet to 8 oz of hot water or hot milk and stir until smooth. Use milk if you want it creamier, or add a splash more liquid if you like it milder.
Iced: Dissolve 1 packet in 3 oz of hot liquid, stir in 3 oz of cold liquid, then pour over ice.
Stir. Sip. Ignore the group chat.

FAQ
Do I need a machine to make this?
Nope. A mug, a spoon and some hot water or milk is the whole setup. If you own a milk frother, it makes the top extra frothy, but nobody's checking.
Should I use water or milk?
Either works. Milk powder is already in the mix, so water makes a perfectly good cup. Full-cream milk makes it richer and creamier. No judgment from the water crowd.
Does Peppermint Cocoa have caffeine?
It's cocoa, not coffee, and there's no added caffeine in the mix. Cocoa naturally carries a trace, far less than you'd find in a cup of coffee.
How many servings are in a packet?
One. Each 28 g packet makes one 8 oz mug.
Can I make Peppermint Cocoa iced?
Yes. Dissolve the packet in 3 oz of hot liquid, add 3 oz of cold liquid, and pour over ice. It's mainly a hot mug mix, but the iced version holds up fine.
Does Peppermint Cocoa contain milk or soy?
Yes. It contains milk and soy. The full ingredient list is in the Ingredients & Nutrition tab.
